The "snow cone" maker raised a few eyebrows with the TSA at Dallas/Fort Worth airport. They wiped it down with their swabs and ran them through the nasty substances detector. I told them that if they were testing for tequila, the results were definitely coming back positive. Eventually they gave A-OK and I managed to make my flight.

A big thanks to Paul and Patty for picking me up at Lambert and giving me a quick tour of Litchfield. The temps here are a welcome relief from back home. Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow and burning some kero!!!!

Regards,

Jim

Just got home from 2 fun filled days at Route 66 Jets. Thanks Roger and crew for putting on a great show. Winning the JR rx was also pretty nice.

Roger,
Thanks for the great event! The Electrodynamics crew had a blast and burned a ton of Kero!

I don't think Chris Tucker will ever let go of that trophy

We are back and all unpacked. Chris and I had a great time. Awesome runway and great people. Low cost hotels and incredible food. We will be back next year!!!!!!

Thanks for the hospitality Roger!!! Nothing better than a simple, non-political easy going event.

I would also like to thank Roger and his crew for a great time this weekend. Also a big thanks has to go out to the airport manager for letting us use the facility for four great days of none stop flying. Thanks again Roger for the great flying site and the food on saturday night.

Thanks Roger and Crew for another great event. Dorothy, Sparky,and I had a great time! The food was fantastic, and the weather perfect. I watched the radar of the weather going around us all weekend (what a break)! I had so much fun that I completely forgot about my camera. Thanks to Patty for the great pictures. Thanks again, and we'll see you next year for sure
